Reynolds: 'Lantern suit was uncomfortable'

Ryan Reynolds has admitted that he found the suit he wears while filming the forthcoming Green Lantern uncomfortable.

The 33-year-old, who reportedly injured himself on set, joked that he wishes the real suit had been invented.

Speaking at Comic-Con, he said: "I'm wearing a motion capture suit, something much more uncomfortable than the actual suit would be, so some days I would rather they rip the suit out of my skin and make it happen the way it's supposed to in the movie than wear that thing."

However, Reynolds promised that the outfit, first pictured earlier this month, will look amazing on screen.

"The technology that they have available to them now, that they didn't even have a year ago, is so incredible," he said.

"You'll see the energy running through the suit, you'll hear it too. What they've really tried to focus on is the suit being a true physical manifestation of the ring bearer's biology, his will and his imagination."

He added: "Effectively the suit comes out of you, it's not something you put on."
